The morning had come, and with it, wolves fought over pieces of decaying flesh with vultures. Even though it was a new day the smell of blood sat strong carved into the dirt and rocks.Tianlong: All forces split up!!! 1thousand to the right and left!!! Fu Chen!!! Yes, general!? You shall command the left!!! Captain Lu the right I hope everyone comes out safe!!!
Soon the army of 5thousandish had split up and marched up Blood Sword Mountain unknowingly walking into a trap set up by the Bandit Boss of the b.l.o.o.d.y Sword Bandits.
Tianlong marched with 1thousandish soldiers down the center which smelled of blood.
Soldier: did you hear how bad the ma.s.sacre was?
Soldier 2: I hear no bandit was left till the blood flowed like h.e.l.l!!!
Sergeant: Knock it off!!! Keep formation!!!!!
Soldiers: Yes Sergeant!!!!
As the center force got deeper and deeper within the mountain fog you couldn"t see through appeared and with it voices of the soldiers and animals.
Tianlong: System!! Could the bandits really have 3thousand if they wasted 2thousand soldiers?
System: Host has made a miscalculation from believing news given out by a captured bandit. Host is walking around a death trap without knowing the exact number!!!
As the system spoke Tianlong started getting an uneasy sense of danger and started getting worried but suddenly the system started warning him about something.
WARNING!! WARNING!!! SS cla.s.s mission has been found!!! SS cla.s.s mission has been found!!! Host is in danger!!!
Tianlong: what do you mean system!?
System: SS cla.s.s mission issued!!! [ Host must Defend the onslaught from the bandits till either the left, east, west or right force has broken through the bandit defense] with that message being said the system pulled up the map and with it the forces Tianlong split up appeared, and with it, the entire mountain was filled with danger symbols.
Tianlong: what does this mean system!?
System: I wish host good luck with the mission!!!
Having no other reply from the system Tianlong got fl.u.s.tered and started panicking!!
Tianlong: calm down Tian it"s just a mission what"s there to worry about?
Soon Tianlong calmed down and started pondering the mission given and suddenly thought of something.
Tianlong looked around the fog multiple times and shouted ALL FORCES INTO A DEFENSIVE FORMATION!!! DOUBLE TIME!!! WE ARE SURROUNDED!!!!
When those words were said the soldiers started getting panicked but got into formation quickly.
Captain Hu: Why are we surrounded general!?
Tianlong looked solemnly into the fog where outlines of multiple figures appeared.
Soon a figure wearing a black cape and greyish black armor appeared and shouted.
Bandit Boss: As expected of a First-cla.s.s general but you noticed too late!!! LISTEN BOYS SLAUGHTER EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THESE LAMBS!!!!!!
Bandits: HAHAHA!!!!
KILLLLL!!!!!
TONIGHT, WE FEAST BROTHERS!!!!!!
FOLLOW THE BOSS!!!!!!
KILL THESE SOLDIERS!!!!!!
Tianlong: ALL UNITS BRACE FOR IMPACT!!!!!!!
Soldiers: SHIELDWALL!!!!!
BLOCK THEM!!!! DON"T LET THEM THROUGH!!!!!!
KILLLLLL!!!!!!
TO THE DEATH!!!!!!!!
Tianlong watched as his men were besieged by countless bandits and felt infuriated that he was given the wrong information about the bandit group.
Tianlong had rushed in with his guard and started ma.s.sacring bandits to improve the plummeting morale of his men.
Tianlong: COME BROTHERS WE SHALL FIGHT TO THE DEATH!!!!!!!! KILLLLL!!!!!!
Soldiers: KILLLLLLL!!!!!! TO DEATH!!!!!
Since the soldiers had no way out, so they decided to follow their general to death!!!!!!
Elsewhere on a different path Lu Lingqi and her 500 men marched. They encountered small guard groups of bandits like they weren"t expecting to get flanked.
Lu Lingqi: Come, men, we are almost to the top!!! Let us use this momentum and push forward and be the first to capture the stronghold!!!!
Soldiers: URAAGGGHH!!!!!!
Though Lu Lingqi was new to leading it awoke naturally for her since she had an aura that would make one feel safe and protected but could be a demon like her father and brother!
On the left path Fu Chen had encountered at least 30 groups of bandits tiring out his men and had to rest but when he thought about Tianlong battling alone, he gathered the morale and pushed forth!!
Back to the center
Soldiers; THE LEFT FLANK IS FALLING!!
PUSH THEM BACK!!!!!!!
KILLLL!!!!! FOLLOW THE GENERAL TILL DEATH!!!!!
On this lonely path, the shouts of men could be heard but no one answered it was like they were abandoned by their lord and brothers, they fell to countless attacks with their general and would follow him till death!!!
Soon Tianlong and his unit of 1thousand fell to 700 and was falling rapidly but they still didn"t waver in front of the barrage of countless bandits. Tianlong himself became a demon and killed any bandit who dared breakthrough which caused the center of the formation to stay stable.
As Tianlong sunk deeper in killing his men were dying and saying their goodbyes to him and their brothers.
Soldiers: BROTHER HU TAKE CARE OF MY FAMILY IM LEAVING NOW IM JOINING BROTHERS FU AND TONG!!!!
Captain Hu: NOOOO!!!!!!!
On this sad battlefield, the sad cries of men saying goodbye echoed in the mountain and was soon heard by the other forces advancing.
As Tianlong lost himself in the rage of losing brothers that followed him since he joined the army didn"t notice the notification from the system.
System: Beep, Beep, Beep!!! Host has created an undefeatable army spirit!! Has met the requirements of the Purple-Gold token and has unlocked Unwavering Will/Determination!!!!
